Step 2: Start the launchpad from L4Linux

Now, the L4Linux environment should be available and we can login. Then we can start L4 tasks using the run-l4 Linux program:

run-l4 --fprov "TFTP" "(nd)/tftpboot/drops/cfg/launch.conf"

Launchpad Loader config script:

 # cfg/launch.conf

 verbose 0
 modpath "(nd)/tftpboot/drops/bin/l4v2"

 task "launchpad" "-a (nd)/tftpboot/drops/bin/l4v2/vscrtest \
                   -a (nd)/tftpboot/drops/bin/l4v2/dopecmd \
                   -a (nd)/tftpboot/drops/bin/l4v2/yuvtest \
                   -a (nd)/tftpboot/drops/bin/l4v2/vtexttest"

Note:
Of course, we have to place the run-l4 binary within the RAM disk.

The "-a" option specifies an application entry the launchpad should provide. Optionally, we could use another file-provider by specifying the "-f" argument.

Step 3: Dump program sections of L4 task
